A truly heretical skirmish wargame set in an alternative WW1.
Greetings Crusaders!
A quick update today to let you know that Paypal has now been implemented on the S3D platform for physical miniature shipping. If you were having troubles or unable to pay with a card, you can now use Paypal!
Have a great week!
Greetings Crusaders,
Some very exciting news today: shipping is about to begin, on time and as planned!
The first packages containing Trench Crusade miniatures will soon be on their way to a few lucky commanders!
Now, this first salvo is small. It’s a live fire exercise to make sure that the system for printing, processing, checking, packing and shipping works as intended from start to finish.
As long as we don’t encounter any issues, the real fun will begin as of next week.
Due to the nature of producing through 3D Printing, things are going to be ramping up over the next few weeks. What this means is that at first packages will trickle out, but then it’ll be dozens and up to hundreds per day by the end of February.
As I’ve mentioned previously, we originally wanted rewards going out in order of backer number but due to the success of the campaign, efficiency will be the priority so that we can get all the rewards out as fast as possible.
When your shipment leaves you will receive an email from Shop3D informing you and providing the tracking information for your package.
We’ll also post another update soon about contacting us if you have any issues with your package and also how to prepare resin miniatures for those of you that have never handled them before.
As of writing 70% of you have filled out your surveys!
Concerning a strict deadline, we are going to set the end of February as the hard cutoff date. Deliveries will be in full swing by then and having all orders locked down will allow OG to properly plan shipping for any latecomers efficiently.
If you haven’t done so yet, don’t forget that OG cannot process your order until it is done.
Have a good weekend folks!
Greetings Crusaders,
Today’s update is about some other crowdfunding projects we think you’ll love! There are two Kickstarters launching today that we wanted to bring to your attention: Trench Crusade - The Red Brigade by Westfalia Publishing, and 28 Collected by 28 Magazine. The following is a rundown of each project. Feel free to check them out and support them if you can!
Trench Crusade - The Red Brigade
This project is our very first official licensed product! The Kickstarter campaign is being run by the talented folks at Westfalia Publishing, who have created a series of alternative figurines for the New Antioch sub-faction : The Red Brigade.
There are over 40 miniatures on offer, including single piece sculpts and multi-part miniatures that will allow you to create the Red Brigade and New Antioch warbands of your dreams/nightmares. All of the designs have been approved by the Trench Crusade team, and the results speak for themselves:
This campaign includes a free PDF containing an introduction to the Red Brigade with official lore and new rules written by Tuomas Pirinen. The PDF also offers an unofficial small campaign, with new units and characters, as well as an unofficial stealth game plug-in for the core Trench Crusade rules: The Crimson Shadow. And of course, there are some exciting free minis up for grabs too!
Westfalia contacted us very early on in our campaign to express their interest in working with us, and given their stellar track record in miniatures, we accepted whole-heartedly. The campaign is online now, and will only last 12 days, so if New Antioch is your faction of choice, be sure to check them out.
And the Red Brigade will rise anew...
28 Collected
For those of you who aren’t familiar with it, 28 Magazine is a free online publication about all of the fantastic art behind the world of wargaming. Its articles celebrate the creativity of the miniature painting, illustration, photography and writing that bring wargaming to life.
The 28 Collected Kickstarter campaign aims to fund a bespoke, 320-page, hardback book with a physical collection of articles from the first six issues of 28 Magazine. The campaign will only last for two weeks, so don't miss out.
The folks at 28 Magazine were kind enough to work with us during our Kickstarter campaign, creating a bespoke miniature design for us: the Scripture Guardian.
In return, we’ve made a design of our own for backers of their campaign. It will be revealed soon, so be sure to check it out…
We’re firm believers in the notion that all gaming is art, and 28 Magazine celebrates a unique and diverse art movement that has its roots in fan-generated gaming in (and beyond) the Warhammer 40,000 universe. It showcases how painters and gamers have pushed boundaries far beyond 40K to bring their passions to the table, and we’re delighted to show our support. If you would like to see more, you can check out the publication online at 28-mag.com.
We hope you enjoy these two campaigns, and we wish their creators the very best of luck!
Greetings Crusaders,
A very quick update for Beast and Heresiarch backers today to clarify the items you'll be seeing in your miniatures shipping invite.
What you're seeing as "the Beast" is not a single model but actually the BIG bundle that contains all the faction warbands and reinforcements (not the mercs), plus the accessories and the Scripture Guardian.
So don't worry. It may only be showing the Heretic priest in the icon BUT I can assure you you'll be recieving a lot more than just him!
For Heresiarch backers, you'll see both "The Beast" and Two Terrain Bundles. Also please remember that dice are not included here. You'll be contacted by Baron of Dice for those later.
My apologies for the confusion, I've been so deep in the files and production organization recently I didn't think to specify what the Beast contained! I hope this clears that up :)
Have a good weekend folks!
Greetings Crusaders,
In a few hours time invites will be going out for the physical miniatures to confirm their address and pay for shipping.
Like with Backerkit, you will receive your invite via email. It will be coming from a @shop3D.io address. Shop3D is OnlyGame’s platform for fulfillment so do not be alarmed if you don’t recognise the name.
These emails will be sent out in waves so please don’t worry if you don’t receive yours immediately.
The link contained in the email will take you to the shop 3D site where you’ll be able to:
Please note that this is for your reference only. We cannot change your order at this time.
Please be very, very attentive when entering your shipping information. Any errors could cause your package to be lost or returned to us which will incur additional costs to reproduce and reship. This includes the email and phone number which will be provided to the carrier.
Also, if you’re using an alternative postal address such as a P.O. box, please double check that they can receive packages.
Finally, once you’ve submitted your address and paid for shipping, you cannot change it so, once again, double and triple check!
As previously stated, shipping for the miniatures was not included in the KS or the Backerkit. You will be paying these to Shop3D/OnlyGames directly.
I didn’t get my email invitation
Please give the system 24 hours to send your invitation and, as per usual please check your spam filters and promotional tabs before contacting us. Additionally, please double check your Backerkit to make sure you filled out the survey properly. If you still haven’t received anything after that, you can contact Shop3D here who will look into it for you.
There’s something missing from my order
Please check your order on Backerkit before messaging us. If it’s something you forgot to add, our apologies but we cannot change your order at this stage. If the item in question is in your order on BK but missing on S3D due to an importation error or something similar, rest assured that we will fix it. You can contact us on Backerkit.
I have a problem with the S3D site
For anything related to issues with the platform, please contact S3D here.
I need to correct/change my address
Once you’ve submitted your address, you cannot change it yourself. Only Games has to do this for you. Contact OnlyGames ASAP to have your address changed. Please note that if your order has already been processed and shipped, they won’t be able to help.
Once this is complete and paid for, your rewards will be officially submitted for fulfilment!
A lot of the bulk printing is already under way so we should start to see orders being shipped out very soon!
